Subject[PATCH v2 0/6] Rework REFCOUNT_FULL using atomic_fetch_* operations
Date
Hi all,

This is version two of the patches I previously posted here:

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190802101000.12958-1-will@kernel.org

Changes since v1 include:

* Avoid duplicate WARNs when incrementing from zero
* Some crude lktdm perf results to motivate the change:

# perf stat -r 3 -B -- echo {ATOMIC,REFCOUNT}_TIMING >/sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT

# arm64
ATOMIC_TIMING: 46.50451 +- 0.00134 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.00% )
REFCOUNT_TIMING (REFCOUNT_FULL, mainline): 77.57522 +- 0.00982 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.01% )
REFCOUNT_TIMING (REFCOUNT_FULL, this series): 48.7181 +- 0.0256 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.05% )

# x86
ATOMIC_TIMING: 31.6225 +- 0.0776 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% )
REFCOUNT_TIMING (!REFCOUNT_FULL, mainline/x86 asm): 31.6689 +- 0.0901 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.28% )
REFCOUNT_TIMING (REFCOUNT_FULL, mainline): 53.203 +- 0.138 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.26% )
REFCOUNT_TIMING (REFCOUNT_FULL, this series): 31.7408 +- 0.0486 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.15% )

Cheers,

Will
